Cowboys Linked To Shedeur in Schefter Blockbuster Prediction

FRISCO - "It could happen.''

And it's true. Not long ago, a banana duct-taped to a wall recently sold as "art" for $6.2 million.

So ESPN's Adam Schefter is right.

"It could happen.''

Because anything could happen.

So ... could the Dallas Cowboys wind up drafting Deion Sanders' son after all?

Here we go ...

The New York Giants didn't want Colorado QB at No. 3. The QB-needy Saints and Steelers passed on him, too.

All 32 teams did that in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday.

Now it's Friday. 

Yes, the Cowboys are set with Dak Prescott and his $240 million contract at quarterback. But he’ll be 32 when the season starts, and three of the last five seasons he has missed significant time with injuries.

They do have Joe Milton and Will Grier, but ...

Enter Schefter.

"I think we’re at the point where it might be a team that drafts Shedeur that we haven’t even connected him to,'' the ESPN "insider'' said on Friday before Day 2 of the draft. "Somebody that would be an outlying quarterback team.''

Hmmm. Wonder where this is going ...

“Again, this is not any evidence or any reporting,'' he continued. "But I’m just giving you a team like the Seattle Seahawks, the Arizona Cardinals, the Dallas Cowboys. A team that we’ve never linked to Shedeur could all of a sudden step into the mix because they have a high grade on him, their pick comes up tonight and even though they don’t have a need, he would be the highest rated player on their board. 

"That could happen this evening.”

Could it? Sure.

Or ... Shedeur could still go to the Cleveland Browns, who have the top pick in Round 2.

The tumult that would be caused by Shedeur landing with the Cowboys in Round 2? Massive. The attention for Jerry Jones' team? Even more massive.

Schefter is here for it, armed with a banana and some duct tape.

So I guess we are, too.
